Why do you think I'm using Linux mint now?
Why is everyone moving to Mint?
Mint is pretty good at "it just works" thing and has a very friendly UI. It also comes with a few very handy tools developed in house by the Mint team (though these can be installed on other Debian/Ubuntu based distros). It's usually high on the list of recommended distros for people new to Linux or who just need general purpose computing without a lot of fuss.
Because I had experience with Ubuntu in the past & wanted to give mint a try.
Seconding this. Along with the fact that Ubuntu wouldn't work properly when I tried it. I had an issue with the installer that prevented me from downloading anything. So I tried mint and it just worked.
How are you finding it so far?
So far I like it. All I want from my operating system is to just work & not spy on me/be secure.
Mostly because it's similar enough to Window's GUI, while not being Microsoft.
Makes sense then, thank you.

We all know that Linux users have the most guarantee to get laid
